Health & Safety Management Standards and Guidance

Management Standards

the standards required to ensure that the necessary health and safety controls are in place for specific topics

the responsibilities of those required to ensure that the standards are met

Currently they are in various formats including the older Policy Standards and Safety Policy Supplements. There is a planned schedule of review and these documents will be replaced over time with Health & Safety Management Standards of a standardised format. However, regardless of the published dates, all existing Policy Standards or Safety Policy Supplements remain current (as agreed by University Health & Safety Committee) until reviewed and replaced.

Guidance

Health & Safety Guidance documents are intended to supplement the Health & Safety Management Standards. They provide more detailed information to those with responsibility for ensuring that the required standards are met.
